关于使用jboss和tomcat的讨论

在项目中由于从jboss向tomcat切换。需要考虑一些问题，最终确定了下来。

1、ear包和war包

jboss是ejb容器，可以运行ejb应用，支持ear包。而Tomcat只是servlet容器，只能运行web应用，只能打成war包。

2、运行时jar包

在jboss中的modules目录里有system的文件夹，是jboss自带的jar包，启动时会自动加载。

而其它文件夹是用户自己创建的，放着工程中一些公共的运行时jar包。可以按需加载，具体在jboss-deployment-structure.xml中配置，具体的位置：

需要哪些jar包在里面声明哪些jar包。

还以上图内容举例：

而tomcat自带的一些jar包在lib下。

当tomcat启动的时候讲会加载这些jar包。目前了解到，tomcat没有按需加载的机制，所以工程中一些公共的运行时jar包放到这里会全部加载。

扩展：

Java中有三种xAR文件：JAR/WAR/EAR

JAR:Java ARchieve

WAR:Web ARchieve

EAR:Enterprise ARchieve

用UML类图表示他们之间的关系：
